"President Derviş Eroğlu is expected to ask the National Unity Party to form a caretaker government until elections.
The Turkish Cypriot government fell on June 5 after a vote of no confidence passed through Parliament.
A group of lawmakers from the ruling National Unity Party (UBP) recently issued the motion together with opposition parties, pushing the country into political turmoil. Out of the 50-seat Parliament, 27 lawmakers voted for the motion while 21 UBP lawmakers voted against it. Prime Minister İrsen Küçük was expected to hand his resignation to the President Derviş Eroğlu. The ruling party and the opposition agreed last month to hold early elections on July 28. Parliamentary elections were due to be held in April 2014."
